LVT Herringbone Flooring

Part of the parquet LVT flooring family, herringbone luxury vinyl offers a beautiful and timeless classic patterned floor for any room. The tiles are cut and laid in a staggered zig-zag pattern at a 90-degree angle. They have a very historical design that blends traditional or retro-style spaces. This design dates back centuries but is very popular in modern homes looking to add a visually dramatic look.

Why Choose Herringbone LVT Flooring

LVT herringbone flooring offers a wide range of benefits for your home. The main one is that it offers the same luxurious patterns as real wooden herringbone flooring but is often a more affordable option. 

Other benefits of having herringbone luxury vinyl flooring are:

• Durability: All herringbone LVT flooring is hardwearing and scratch-resistant, meaning it will last a long time, making it a great investment.
• Water-resistant: Unlike wood, herringbone luxury vinyl tiles are water-resistant and slip-resistant, making this a great option for bathrooms and kitchens where real herringbone can't be used. That said, they are not suitable for installation in a traditional wet room.
• Easy to clean: Our LVT herringbone is super easy to clean and maintain. To keep it in good condition, just sweep, vacuum, and lightly mop regularly.
• Easy to install: Herringbone vinyl flooring is available in click and gluedown, making it popular for DIY installations.

LVT Herringbone Styles

A herringbone luxury vinyl floor is a great space enhancer for your home. It brings an abstract look and can make smaller spaces look bigger. You can find this pattern in a range of colours and tones to create the effect you want in your home, from lighter colours such as white or grey herringbone vinyl to darker shades. You can also find a wide range of wood-brown shades with specks and gradients to give off the look of a real wood floor.

You can also find a similar pattern called chevron LVT, which is characterised by its V-shape point pattern, which creates a more sophisticated modern look.

How To Lay Herringbone LVT

Herringbone luxury vinyl flooring is easier to install than traditional wood herringbone. The click and gluedown installation methods are perfect for DIY fitting. Herringbone LVT click flooring just clicks and locks into place as you lay each tile, while traditional LVT gluedown herringbone uses glue as an adhesive to stick each tile to your subfloor.

See our LVT installation guide for more in-depth information.

Herringbone LVT Room Suitability

Unlike wood, herringbone luxury vinyl flooring suits all types of rooms, including small and large, high-traffic rooms and even wet rooms. Herringbone vinyl flooring can be used to create stunning entranceways for hallways or porches or used as a durable centrepiece for living rooms, dining areas or bedrooms. It's suitable for underfloor heating, so you don't have to worry about a cold underfoot feeling. Due to its water-resistant benefits, you can have a beautifully designed bathroom or kitchen with herringbone LVT, compared to wood, which can swell with moisture or humidity. LVT is a great option that will last.
